### Usage
### Usage with Middleware (Express)

You can create an instance of ParseServer, and mount it on a new or existing Express website:

```js
var express = require('express');
var ParseServer = require('parse-server').ParseServer;

var app = express();

var port = process.env.PORT || 1337;

// Specify the connection string for your mongodb database
// and the location to your Parse cloud code
var api = new ParseServer({
databaseURI: 'mongodb://localhost:27017/dev',
cloud: '/home/myApp/cloud/main.js', // Provide an absolute path
appId: 'myAppId',
masterKey: '', //Add your master key here. Keep it secret!
fileKey: 'optionalFileKey',
serverURL: 'http://localhost:' + port + '/parse' // Don't forget to change to https if needed
});

// Serve the Parse API on the /parse URL prefix
app.use('/parse', api);

// Hello world
app.get('/', function(req, res) {
res.status(200).send('Express is running here.');
});

app.listen(port, function() {
console.log('parse-server-example running on port ' + port + '.');
});

```
